Derby County manager, Frank Lampard has reacted to the retirement of Chelsea legend, John Terry from football.
Recall that Terry on Sunday evening announced his retirement from football, via his Instagram page.
Lampard, who played alongside Terry for many years at Chelsea, and also with the national team, congratulated the former centre-back, adding that it was an honour to have played alongside the 37-year-old.
“Congratulations on an incredible career @johnterry.26,” Lampard posted on Instagram.
“It was an honour to walk alongside you at @chelseafc and see close up the sheer will and desire to be the best and also encourage the best from all around you. Truly inspirational.
“On top of that, to have the qualities that meant you stayed at the very top of world football consistently throughout your time.
“You were never content, always driving yourself and others onto continued success at the very top.
“What a player, what a leader, what a career. A true GREAT.
“Wishing you the very best in the next chapter, whatever you do, you will be a huge success.”
